[@pollys6192]

Dear Cath, the last few days have been cold and rainy because spring is coming around here and winter doesn't want to go. Your videos warm my evenings (journaling as usual) like a big mug of hot chocolate. Thank you for that!

[@cupsandthoughts]

dearest paula, that just sounds so cozy! 🤍 i’m happy my videos can keep you warm 🥹 big hugs! 🥰

[@sarang4471]

I'm literally obsessed with watching ur videos ❤️🥹❤️

[@cupsandthoughts]

you’re so kind ahhh thank you 😭🥹

[@Ninisspace]

I'm so happy to have found you on here. I love watching your videos and watched all of em last night on my ps5. Rewatching them again now so I can like and comment 💕 also your Notion looks so professional. I always wonder how people get their Notion so neat 🤩👌🏻

[@mishph]

Discovering your channel is such a blessing. It made me appreciate life more so thank you.

[@blubuttafly]

ok I know its been 4 months and u probs wont see this but 'The Witches" was also the book that made me a reader!!! My elementary school teacher read it out to us but I moved before I could finish it with her, so I bought a copy of the book on my own! Ended up LOVING it and, BOOM I suddenly was the bookworm of my class. Thank u so much for these amazing videos! They make me feel like I have someone to relate to!

[@Amz11_13]

Ahhh another Cath video 🥲. I love your new crafting desk setup, your dinner looked sooo good, your kitties meows are the sweetest, i too love sleeping in fresh sheets and the way you wrapped your friends gifts 🥲. Completely obsessed with your sweet and gentle videos, and have you to thank for bringing the beauty of the little things back into my life ❤

[@cupsandthoughts]

hehe thank you so much for the support 🥹🤍🤍 you’re so very kind, i’m happy you share the joy in these small and cozy moments 🥰✨

[@kimstadtherr]

Wow, reminiscing about my younger days always brings back fond memories of the Dragonology book I used to admire in the bookstore. Eventually, it became a cherished gift, and I delighted in discovering the alphabet hidden within its pages. Sending secret notes to my bestie in school was a thrilling pastime that still resonates with me, even after more than a decade has passed. My affection for that book remains as strong as ever. 🥰

[@Jinxofthedesert]

Another wonderful video! All the themes centered around them are all so great, I don't think I could pick a fav. Those books from your haul were so nostalgic! I've not read (but definitely want to now) Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx; it looked so cute! Also I love your blue tea set so much. Do you know if it's sold anywhere online? My thought was probably not, cause it looks so unique from what one would usually find. And your lovely comments at the end?? ❤ I'm glad your KZbin is going so well for you! You make such wonderful and calming content; I am always so happy to come back when you post and rewatch older vids too. Wishing you all the luck and a great week! 😊

[@cupsandthoughts]

thank you, thank you so much! 😭🤍 i can’t believe i’ve not heard of that book before, but i’m so happy my sister scored a beautiful secondhand copy of it! it’s so wholesome 🥰 the blue teapot is from t2tea! i think it was a limited edition set so probably not sold online anymore :( but they have so many other beautiful teasets to choose from! 🤍 i am truly so grateful for KZbin and sometimes i feel like i’m dreaming! the support has been nothing amazing and super kind and wholesome 😭🤍 thank you sooo much for the support 🥹 i hope you have a great week too!

[@deemalkiasworld]

The illustrations in the middle grade books are beautiful also I always have to drink a cup of tea when watching your vlogs.

[@elf10]

Your excitement and appreciation for the illustrated children’s books made me so happy, because I’m another adult who really enjoys the artwork and whimsy of illustrated children’s books too ❤ I often lament how it’s a shame most adult fiction isn’t illustrated (aside from the cover). I would love artwork every few pages or so in adult fiction ❤

[@sarabreugelmans4859]

Hi Cath, what another lovely video!! I have a chronic illness, and today was a particularly bad one. But watching your video brought me joy and peace, so thank you for brightening my day!! 🥰🥰💕

[@ink-stained_realms]

Your cats are just the sweetest! 😍 I've had 2 cats when I was a kid that looked very similar to Leia and every time I see her it reminds me of them... 🧡aaaand I have the EXACT same desk as you! 😅😍 it's quite small (sometimes too small 😇) but I love it, especially with the little drawers... 🙃 Thank you for sharing another very cozy video!

[@cupsandthoughts]

[@shesjustsomegirl]

Hi good morning! Omg, when you went through the books I got total nostalgia of reading most of these to my kids when they were little... now they're teenagers getting ready for college 🥹

[@madeby_bia]

I love your vlogs so much, Cath! 💌💌I've been binge-watching them to get some inspiration for the ones I'm making.

[@Abookandacup]

Fun fact : the illustrator of The witches is French 🥰 she did an amazing job with it! (And roasted seaweed is sooo good )

[@ASmurf100]

Such a cozy and wholesome vlog Cath. Your book haul brings back so many memories of similar books that I still have from years ago during my childhood. I have an Egyptology and Wizardology book as well in the same series of books, just like the Dragonology book. They're very interactive, really interesting, so pretty and such good reads. ❤❤🥰

[@cupsandthoughts]

ahh i’m glad you like it 🥰 it’s wonderful that you got to grow up with these amazing books! they’re so much fun 🤍

[@Kayla-gh6dr]

Can’t wait to get all cozy on this rainy day and watch this ✨

[@cupsandthoughts]

that sounds so wonderful 🥰✨

[@severinetompsett9602]

Oh the Dragonology book was as much a gift to myself as to my sons! We all loved it so much. Recently discovered the beautiful illustrations of Julia Sarda, and I would higly recommend her books.. Her style is very unique full of details, inspired by so many cultures, but still mix g them in one signature. As you have sisters, you might like 'the queen in the cave', a beautiful adventure of three sisters. Take care Cath. Reading Babel atm, and loving it.

[@trishmckenna229]

I binge-watch your content while studying. I adore the calming format❤ I was wondering where you get your ceramic cups and saucers from? I would love to get my hands on one as well.

[@alexg1668]

Lovely- your craft desk area is motivating me to gather my supplies to one area. Thanks for posting ❤

[@cupsandthoughts]

hehe that’s great!! 🥰✨

[@stegobookosaurusrawr4153]

Omg I used to have the dragonology book! I used to bring it to the woods and go dragon spotting 😅 But the Brownstone mythology collection is so cute!! I have the one about the Monkey King - it's so good!

Queen of aesthetic ❤

[@julialovesgfriend]

everybody in the comments saying they grew up with the dragonology book, for me it was the wizard version!! don’t know what it was called for sure bc it was the Brazilian Portuguese version but it’s pretty similar, just about wizards and witches and shamans etc instead! it was so special to me growing up and it truly made my childhood happier 🩵

[@aaw14]

I love your cats. Their meows are so cute.😊😊😊

[@lucca7023]

When you showed the Dragonology book,i was "😲😲😲 woahh...bestie😊😊😊" i got one too

I've recently read "Beautiful Darkness" and "Taproot - a story about a gardener and a ghost" and i'm in love ,they're so special and beautiful🥰

[@qianliow4421]

dearest Cath, Immediately came to watch after seeing you uploaded a video! Oh wow this vlog is so wholesome !! X Angelina ballerina was (and still is) one of my favourites too! I remember chancing the book in primary school in the library and I did not regret :) seeing you getting the book is so lovely, it is truly amazing artwork and it makes life much more sweeter and I also miss such art :< Prince and Leia are the cutest! I love how they were staring at the food and meowing, my heart melted And your craft table is solid, the amount of craft supplies and seeing everything in one place is definitely awesome! I understand that you have to temporarily close your shop and I am honoured to have bought 3 times from you hehe :) your craft envelope decoration and your stickers are amazing, seeing the last part on the decoration reminds me of the package I have :') I am very thankful!

[@cupsandthoughts]

dearest qian qing, thank you for the constant support, you’re an angel 😭🥹 that angelina ballerina book brought so much memories!! it makes me want to rewatch the shows hehe 🥰 the kitties are very persistent with their breakfast! i’m grateful they’re super polite about it though 😁 the craft table turned out really nicely, i’m so happy! i remember packing all of your orders, thank you so much for the amazing support 🥹 i really really hope to open my shop again one day! 🤍 and patreon too of course 🥰 sensing you lots of love! cath xx

I love your idea of productivity! Us Americans need to get rid of the daily grind of working 3 jobs and running never ending carpools. Until then I will live vicariously through you and watch your videos to relax..
